Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 20 oz cans young green jackfruit in water or brine
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup veggie broth
- 3/4 cup barbecue sauce
Instructions
- Drain jackfruit and rinse thoroughly.
- Add jackfruit, spices and veggie broth to a heavy-bottom skillet and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until jackfruit has softened and liquid has mostly cooked off.
- Remove jackfruit from heat and mash with the back of your spoon or potato masher. Stir in barbecue sauce.
- Optional: If you want your jackfruit slightly firmer and less saucy, preheat oven to 450°F. Spread jackfruit out evenly on a lined baking tray. Bake for 10-15 minutes, stirring midway, until sauce has dried up and caramelized slightly in places.
